I lent my laptop to a 'friend' who down loaded porn, and now the laptop is filled with viruses. It is MY laptop and if I want it cleaned I could do it but I think they should pay the cost since what they did put the viruses on my laptop in the first place.

Not a good question around here. They are still trying to digest "get rid of porn"

I would ask them to pay for it, but wouldn't ever lend out the laptop again

Or you just want it cleaned because of what they did with it?

Why don't you review the porn and see if it has any artistic merit?

oooh.. i see. i never trust what comes with the laptop. that's just me.
anyway, if you had had better anti-virus software, it would have drastically reduced issues, if not prevented the infection entirely. i go to adult sites and have NEVER had a problem with viruses.

If the person who borrowed the laptop was any kind of friend at all, they would offer to pay for cleaning it. If they don't, you may want to re-evaluate how you chose your friends.

I wouldn't have loaned out a laptop to anyone in the first place - neither friends nor family.
